Blog – Genesis 3:14-15

Part 1 In 400-500 words, reflect on the Bible and textbook readings by further explaining one of the theological themes introduced in the lecture: Image of God, Messiah, or Nations. However you organize your discussion, you must use specific examples from the Bible, textbook, or other scholarly sources to ground your observations.

• Select Biblical texts from the assigned reading (chapters or verses) that support one of the themes

from the lecture. Explain how these references support the theme. How do they answer the

questions posed by the theme?

• Identify larger stories/motifs/characters in the Biblical text that support one of the themes from

the lecture. Connect how these larger stories/motifs/characters support the theme.

• Does the textbook draw out any helpful New Testament connections related to one of the

themes? Reflect on how these connections help fill out your understanding of the theme.
